Here they are in their “PE kits,” which they have to wear every day they have gym — which is three days a week, which confuses me about the much ballyhooed reg. uniforms. but mine is not to wonder why…

hi alan its stephanie and paulina we are so happy to see the kds in the pictures and i am happy to know everything is going fine with the family over there. we miss you guys hope everything keeps going fine. xoxo we miss you

Dear Alan: Great article in the JN about Becky – and I also loved reading about you in Slam.Hmmmmm-chicken feet and some crunchy locusts – can you ask them to leave out the hot peppers?Actually, I found a couple of crunchy locusts in my garden – think you’re giving me some ideas for Dave.Dropped Nat off this weekend at her apartment – everything looks great and she’s thrilled w/ it – said she slept like a baby in Anna’s bed last night – but you’d better not pass that bit of info on.It was tough coming home (I went alone w/ Nat – Dave is sick w/ a bad cold)- no Pauls to ease my heartache. I got an ISight and will hook up as soon as you are in your house, etc.I really miss each and every one of you – my almost daily calls w/ you just checking in, and, of course, those gorgeous children. Please keep those pics coming regularly – they are very fine medicine for one lonesome NJ fan. Also, please send me Becky’s email address so I can send her mail directly. In the meantime-give her a big hug and kiss and tell herI miss her.Love, Carrie
